Midfielder Ruler
Chapter 284: The beginning of the locker room
Dortmund's 2o12-2o13 UEFA Champions League group match at home in the 2o12-2o13 season relied on Tang Zheng's goal to beat Ajax 1-0, but the team lost Pirlo, which somewhat reduced the victory of this game.
The presence of Pirlo makes Dortmund's overall offense more three-dimensional, and his rich experience in the Champions League is a valuable asset for the team.
Last season's Dortmund was able to return to the Champions League and enter the Champions League quarter-finals after a lapse of nine years, which is directly related to Pirlo's experience.
The next day, the MRI results came out. Pirlo's injury was not important, but it was difficult to recover.
Thigh muscle strain, this kind of injury is troublesome to recover, and Pirlo is old, and his self-healing ability is much weaker than when he was young, so it is conservatively estimated that Pirlo will miss the game for more than a month.
This news has dealt a huge blow to Dortmund. Fortunately, the league, but the Champions League is more troublesome.
The next Champions League game will be a guest challenge to Manchester City, and then a home game against the Galacticos Real Madrid.
No matter which opponent, the lack of Pirlo is fatal.
The problem of lack of Pirlo has already been reflected in the weekend league. Dortmund is a guest at the Yingtai Arena to challenge the home team Hamburg.
The home team Hamburg lost all the first three rounds and ranked second to last in the league, so this game is considered to be no suspense, and the defending champion will take the home team Hamburg lightly.
But what about the result?
Hamburg defeated the defending champion Dortmund 3:2 at home. Among them, South Korean player Sun Xingmin was in a hot state and scored twice, which was the biggest contributor to Hamburg's victory.
Tang Zheng didn't score a goal or assist, but his runs, number of clearances, and number of passes were the highest of the two teams.
Therefore, many German media believed that Dortmund's away loss was due to Pirlo's injury. In order to ensure that the team's offensive and defensive transitions were not affected, Tang Zheng returned to the midfield to organize and connect the team's offense.
Gotze is very capable, but his confrontation ability and the grasp of the team's key ball are still a little bit behind.
What's interesting is that the Korean media has their opinion. They believe that Hamburg's home victory was entirely due to Sun Xingmin's stunning performance, which caused Tang Zheng to be unable to take care of offense, so Sun Xingmin was blamed for Hamburg's home victory.
Of course, this is only the opinion of the Korean media. The analysis of most media is still in place and fair.
The 2o12-2o13 season of the Bundesliga started later than usual due to the European Cup. In order to finish the first half of the 17th round of the league before Christmas, the league that originally played once a week was squeezed, and it became a double match a week .
For example, the fourth round of the Bundesliga in the 2012-2013 season has passed, followed by the domestic league in the middle of the week.
Borussia Dortmund continue their away trip, they challenge the second-ranked Eintracht Frankfurt at the Forest Stadium.
In this game, Klopp considered that the use of Tang Zheng in the last round of the away game was too defensive, resulting in the team's relatively dumb offense in the frontcourt, so Tang Zheng's position in the midweek league was relatively high.
Not long after the start of the game, Dortmund reaped a miraculous effect and scored a goal.
It was Tang Zheng who made the assist. He casually passed a penetrating through ball to find Royce who was going forward. The latter wisely chose to stab the attacking goalkeeper. Drilled into the goal from between the legs of the striking goalkeeper Trapp.
But the good times didn't last long. A pass error by central defender Hummels was blocked. Frankfurt's frontcourt quickly counterattacked. Forward Meyer shot the ball into Weidenfeller's goal.
Before the end of the first half, Frankfurt switched from defense to offense. A long pass from the backcourt was directed to find the hero of the goal, Meyer. Meyer headed back to the top, followed by the Canadian veteran Ossian with a world-shattering kick to help the home team turn the score!
The home fans are very excited. Frankfurt won all the first four games this season, and they only ranked second in the league because of the goal difference.
If defending champion Dortmund can be defeated in this round, it will definitely boost morale.
However, not long after the start of the second half, Tang Zheng, the core midfielder of Dortmund, stepped forward again. His long shot from the front of the penalty area caused goalkeeper Trapp to drop, and Lewandowski followed to equalize the score.
In the 62nd minute, Dortmund turned the score in the away game. Gotze suddenly made a pass to the middle after breaking through the left side of the penalty area. Tang Zheng made a feint shot, and Lewandowski, who retreated to respond, scored the ball into the lower left corner of the goal.
Just when everyone thought that defending champion Borussia Dortmund would beat Frankfurt in an away game, Japanese player Gan Takashi helped Frankfurt equalize.
The Japanese media was just as excited as the South Korean media last weekend, proud of their country's outstanding players.
3:3
This score is also the final score of the game, and Dortmund lost another point in the away game.
Since Bayern Munich defeated Wolfsburg 3-0 at home at the same time, it means that Dortmund, who has five games, two wins, two draws and one loss, with eight points, has been thrown away by Bayern Munich, which ranks first in the league, by a full seven points...
So far in the 2012-2013 season, Dortmund has played six games, five in the league and one in the Champions League. The two victories in the five league games have all been played at home, which means that Dortmund's away performance this season is very worrying.
The German Bild wrote about Dortmund's poor away results: The reason why Dortmund won the league championship in the 2010-2011 and 2011-2012 seasons is entirely due to their good home and away results. So far, they have not won any away games. The direct result is that they have been beaten by Bayern by 7 points in the first five rounds of the league. If they want to continue their impact on the league championship this season, it is urgent to adjust their away record. In addition, the core midfielder Tang must be more aggressive. ...

Dortmund has lost two consecutive rounds of away games, and the head coach Klopp is under great pressure.
As the star of the team, Tang Zheng also received a lot of criticism. Many media believed that Dortmund's poor away performance was directly related to his lack of performance.
Winning can cover up a lot, and a winning streak can expose some problems.
Dortmund's locally trained star Gotze said in an interview with the media that he should be given more attention, especially when the team is in a difficult situation.
Obviously, the implication is dissatisfaction with Klopp's respect for Tang Zheng as always.
Captain Kyle has always been the leader in the locker room. With Tang Zheng leading Dortmund to the league championship and Europa League championship, Tang Zheng's status in the locker room has risen sharply, which has made some local German players dissatisfied.
The most obvious of these is Gotze, a very ambitious player who has always wanted to be the banner of Dortmund.
But when many fans talked about Dortmund, their first reaction was Tang Zheng.
The content of Gotze's interview with the media fermented quickly, and coach Klopp felt a little dissatisfied, but he did not reprimand Gotze in person, but warned privately.
The current dilemma of the team is not a personal problem, but a problem of the entire team.
Tang Zheng, who focused on training, had always been skeptical of media reports, but he slowly noticed that Goetze's attitude had changed, especially in the locker room.
Could it be... Are you really dissatisfied with yourself?
Thinking of this, Tang Zheng calmed down and carefully pondered the last few games.
It seems that Gotze seems to pass the ball to himself a lot less, and... the pass is also a knife mountain ball.
Is it possible that what the media reported is true?
※※※
At the end of September, Dortmund had their last league game. They returned to home against Borussia Mönchengladbach, who finished fourth in the league last season. Reus once again faced his old club.
Bayern, which started the game first, has defeated Werder Bremen 2:0 in the away game and continues to top the league table.
Bayern's six-game winning streak at the start of the league put a lot of pressure on Dortmund's players, and they seemed a little impatient at the beginning.
Tang Zheng consciously slowed down the team's offensive rhythm, but once the football is passed to Gotze or Royce, the offensive rhythm will be accelerated, so often the offensive has ended before Tang Zheng has participated in the attack.
The head coach Klopp was keenly aware that the team was playing too anxiously, so he took advantage of the dead ball opportunity to remind Gotze and Royce to slow down their offense.
There is no doubt that the authority of the head coach is absolute, and no one dares to violate it.
This season's Borussia Mönchengladbach is no longer the dark horse that finished fourth in the league last season. They have only won one game in the past five rounds of the league.
Dortmund, who played at home, lost points in two consecutive away games. It is understandable that the offense is relatively impatient.
Slowly relieved under the head coach's reminder and Tang Zheng's control, it has to be said that Dortmund who has calmed down is terrifying.
In the twelfth minute, Dortmund scored at home.
Tang Zheng got the ball in the middle and suddenly raised it. He made the illusion that his left foot was going to pass the ball to Gotze, but suddenly knocked the football back with his heel, and then made a long pass without making any adjustments. Szczek made a cross.
Lewandowski scored with a shovel and scored his fifth league goal of the season.
One minute later, the Swiss player Xhaka, who joined Borussia Mönchengladbach this summer, was in possession of the ball in the midfield and was intercepted by Tang Zheng. Leading by two goals at home.
Conceding two goals in a row within two minutes, Borussia Mönchengladbach looked defeated as a guest.
Before the end of the first half, Tang Zheng, who had been playing for his teammates, suddenly fired a shot at the front of the penalty area. Ter Stegen, who was selected as the best goalkeeper of last season, was beyond his reach and watched the football hit the net.
Facing Borussia Mönchengladbach, who had no intention of playing as a guest, Dortmund scored two more goals in the second half, scored by Perisic and Schieber.
In the end, Dortmund beat Borussia Mönchengladbach 5:0 at home.
But this victory at home did not seal the mouth of the media, because the next game is the test of Dortmund.
In the middle of next week, Borussia Dortmund will be a guest at the Etihad Stadium to challenge last season's English League champions Manchester City.
